Make every step, every pound, every act of kindness count; fundraise for Springhill
When you choose to fundraise for Springhill Hospice, youāre not just raising money, youāre helping provide comfort and expert care to people facing some of lifeās toughest moments.
With an annual fundraising target of Ā£2.5 million, every pound you raise is one more pound funding our services. Thatās more nursing hours, more patients cared for and more support for loved ones, for today and tomorrow.
āSpringhill gave my mum the most compassionate care in her final weeks. Fundraising in her memory helped us feel connected and gave us something positive to focus on.ā

Step Three: Get some Help
The Fundraising Team at Springhill is always on hand to give advice, provide supplies and help you make your fundraiser the best it can be. Tell us about your fundraiser and get everything you need; order donation buckets, grab some t-shirts and download sponsor forms.
